Rated 5 out of 5 by RedsoxP from Good fit for my Kitchenaid Both my daughter and myself received the KitchenAid® Pro 5™ Plus 5 Quart Bowl-Lift Stand Mixer for Christmas. I obtained NP256PS directly from Kitchenaid and it fits my bowl perfectly. Prior to this I had purchased one for my daughter through the Marketplace on Walmart and it did not fit hers. (When placed on the countertop it didn't even lay flat, one side kept bouncing back up so of course it wouldn't stay on the bowl). I returned it and ordered one through the Kitchenaid shop on Amazon - that one fit hers. I'm not sure if it is a quality control issue or if the one I purchased through the Marketplace wasn't a factory reject but there are alot of complaints of this shield not fitting.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Jobimoon from Lucky: Pouring shield works for one I just purchased a KN1PS pouring shield, hopefully to fit my larger 5qt stainless mixing bowl that came with my Professional 5 Plus stand mixer (model KP25MOXMC) but it did not. It does work well with the 3qt. smaller mixing bowl so not a total loss. Now to try & find a larger pouring shield for my 5qt. Any help for the next size part number up would be appreciated.

Rated 5 out of 5 by TW from Good for those extra messy mixes. This item is good for those extra messy mixes that have lots of dry ingredients that have to be added or for really liquid mixes that tend to make a splash. Some say this item needs to be more closed and allows too much to escape unlike a previous model. I haven't used the other version but would say that if there is to be a really wide chute then maybe the back can be closed up a little more. There are two areas where material can fly out of the bowl. However, I think it is much nicer than to have nothing at all. Some say that this item doesn't fit the bowl or it falls off of the bowl when the mixer is working. I found that it fit my bowl nicely. There are tabs that go on the outside of the bowl. If you fit two tabs on the outside of the bowl and find that there is one on the inside all you have to do is slightly and gently open the shield to fit the other tab on the outside. This allows the shield to gently hug the outside of the bowl. Voilà! Yes it would be nice to have the shield almost go all the way around except for the chute but I am happy with this item. I have purchased two so far. I do think the price could be improved on since the shield does have such big opening and is so easy to break. I'm sure I'll be buying more. If this is redesigned have a wide chute is great but the wide opening in the back is not. Perhaps they could be combined somehow or the opening in the back narrowed.

Rated 5 out of 5 by L squared from This shield fits my mixing bowl and really helps! This wide chute fits my 5 quart Artisan tilt-head mixing bowl and really helps with adding ingredients and minimizing splattering. It's not a snap-fit, but it rests on and sort of "hugs" the top of the bowl. Where the "U" is in the shield, I still get some ingredients up on my mixer, but it's way better than no shield at all! Again, I'm using it with my stainless steel bowl that came with my 5 quart Artisan tilt-head mixer. It will not fit on my glass bowl.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Suzanne Natafji from KN256PS: The Pouring Shield with a Necessary Tweak "A Necessary Attachment that Works well when Tweaked" For my Artisan 5-bowl mixer, I initially bought the wrong model shield, KN1PS; it was too big, and I had to return it. The refurb models aren't listed, telling what model number of shield to buy, so I looked at shields that would fit any tilt-head'150' model. I read the reviews and finally bought one that fits better, the KPS2CL, on sale with a terrific savings from one seller, but this model could still use a tighter fit. Problems with shield fit could be alleviated if KitchenAid created a table, denoting all mixer models (refurbs included) that each shield fits (and keep this table updated as newer and other models are created). Alternately, KitchenAid could create a standard shield that flexes to fit all bowl sizes but with a 3-4" silicone band or something similar with stretch that hugs and adjusts the shield to securely clamp down onto the bowl in use. (Note that there is no pouring shield that fits my glass bowl, which has a very thick rim.) For my Pro 600 6-bowl lift mixer, I bought the correct-fitting pouring shield after having read many online reviews and discussions: the KN256PS, but like my Artisan shield, it did not fit tightly onto the bowl; it also just sat on top of it. In the short-term for both of my metal bowls (5 quart and 6 quart), I jerry-rigged this problem by cutting up a T-shirt and am using the bottom part of it as a band now (tightened and then clipped with a clothes pin around the shield) to hold it snugly in place until I can find something that looks more professional and aesthetically pleasing. However, this works, so I would advise that buyers keep their pouring shields.

Rated 4 out of 5 by marlena from good enough It does its job. Sometimes flour flies out and it's lose on the bowl. But it's good enough.

Rated 3 out of 5 by BakerBaker19 from Not the right fit I received this item moments ago. It definitely does not fit my 5qt. mixing bowl. The pouring shield I received is too large by at least an inch. I checked to see if I had received KN256PS; I had. Not sure how this could be so mis-sized. Otherwise, the product seems great.
